4 February 2011	WARNING TO REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS The Henderson Smaller Companies Investment Trust plc ('HSCIT') is aware that some shareholders have been called recently, ostensibly from New York, about an offer to buy up 51% of HSCIT's shares from a company (unnamed) that wishes to acquire HSCIT's 'patents and licences'. HSCIT is not aware of any such offer and has no patents and licences. It is highly probable that this 'offer' is being used as a means of acquiring shareholders' personal details for illicit purposes.
